Mr. Show Creators Coming Back to HBO

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross got their latest pilot picked up by HBO, according to Variety. The premium cable channel aired the pair’s sketch-comedy series, Mr. Show, in the late ’90s (see an NSFW clip from the original show at right).

The new pilot, called David’s Situation, will star Cross as himself; Odenkirk will direct. The pair co-wrote the script. Filming will begin in Los Angeles this May. The two comedians hinted of things to come on their site.

Just to get you started, here are two completely disparate lines from the show. They are taken out of context and have nothing to do with each other, but are nonetheless actual lines of dialogue. Enjoy!

HUNT WALKS THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR, ANGRY
HUNT: "I’ve never had to suck so many little pricks in my life!".THE PRODUCERS EYES LIGHT UP

COURTNEY: "Huh? I thought I was still in the shower".

DAVID: "He burps the Star Spangled Banner. You people love that shit."
